21 2006-07-24 v0.9.1
22
23 Major changes between Mercurial 0.9 and 0.9.1:
24
25 New features:
26 - You can now configure your 'hgweb' server to let remote users
27 'push' changes over http.
28 - You can now 'import' a patch in a mail message by saving the mail
29 message, and importing it. This works for patches sent either
30 inline or as attachments.
31 - The 'diff' command now accepts '-rA:B' syntax as a synonym for
32 '-r A -r B', and adds '-b' and '-B' options.
33
34 New contributions and extensions:
35 - The 'acl' extension lets you lock down parts of a repository
36 against incoming changes
37 - The 'extdiff' extension lets you run your favourite graphical
38 change viewer
39 - Comprehensive integration with the 'vim' editor
40 - A restricted shell for 'ssh'-hosted repositories
41 - An importer for 'darcs' repositories
42
43 New hooks added:
44 - 'preupdate' is run before an update or merge in the working
45 directory.
46 - 'update' is run after an update or merge in the working
47 directory.
48
49 Behaviour changes:
50 - NOTE: Mercurial as installed by the Windows binary
51 installer no longer performs automatic line-ending conversion for
52 Unix/Linux compatibility. To re-enable this feature, edit your
53 'mercurial.ini' file after you upgrade.
54 - The Windows binary installer now automatically adds 'hg' to your
55 '%PATH%'.
56 - The 'backout' command now runs an editor by default, to let you
57 modify the commit message for a backed-out changeset.
58 - An earlier problem with parsing of tags has been fixed.
59 This makes tag parsing slower but more reliable.
60
61 Memory usage and performance improvements:
62 - The 'remove' command has been rewritten to be hundreds of times
63 faster in large repositories.
64 - It is now possible to 'clone' a repository very quickly over a
65 LAN, if the server is configured to allow it. See the new 'server'
66 section in the 'hgrc' documentation.
67
68 Other changes of note:
69 - Mercurial will now print help for an extension if you type 'hg
70 help EXT_NAME'.
71 - The usual array of bug fixes and documentation improvements.
72 - The integrated web server is now more WSGI-compliant.
73 - Work has begun to solidify Mercurial's API for use by third-party
74 packages.

12 Major changes between Mercurial 0.9 and 0.9.1:
13
14 New features:
15 - You can now configure your 'hgweb' server to let remote users
16 'push' changes over http.
17 - You can now 'import' a patch in a mail message by saving the mail
18 message, and importing it. This works for patches sent either
19 inline or as attachments.
20 - The 'diff' command now accepts '-rA:B' syntax as a synonym for
21 '-r A -r B', and adds '-b' and '-B' options.
22
23 New contributions and extensions:
24 - The 'acl' extension lets you lock down parts of a repository
25 against incoming changes
26 - The 'extdiff' extension lets you run your favourite graphical
27 change viewer
28 - Comprehensive integration with the 'vim' editor
29 - A restricted shell for 'ssh'-hosted repositories
30 - An importer for 'darcs' repositories
31
32 New hooks added:
33 - 'preupdate' is run before an update or merge in the working
34 directory.
35 - 'update' is run after an update or merge in the working
36 directory.
37
38 Behaviour changes:
39 - NOTE: Mercurial as installed by the Windows binary
40 installer no longer performs automatic line-ending conversion for
41 Unix/Linux compatibility. To re-enable this feature, edit your
42 'mercurial.ini' file after you upgrade.
43 - The Windows binary installer now automatically adds 'hg' to your
44 '%PATH%'.
45 - The 'backout' command now runs an editor by default, to let you
46 modify the commit message for a backed-out changeset.
47 - An earlier problem with parsing of tags has been fixed.
48 This makes tag parsing slower but more reliable.
49
50 Memory usage and performance improvements:
51 - The 'remove' command has been rewritten to be hundreds of times
52 faster in large repositories.
53 - It is now possible to 'clone' a repository very quickly over a
54 LAN, if the server is configured to allow it. See the new 'server'
55 section in the 'hgrc' documentation.
56
57 Other changes of note:
58 - Mercurial will now print help for an extension if you type 'hg
59 help EXT_NAME'.
60 - The usual array of bug fixes and documentation improvements.
61 - The integrated web server is now more WSGI-compliant.
62 - Work has begun to solidify Mercurial's API for use by third-party
63 packages.

66 2006-05-10 v0.9
67
68 * Major changes between Mercurial 0.8.1 and 0.9:
69
8
70 - The repository file format has been improved.
9 http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/WhatsNew
71 - This has resulted in an average 40% reduction in disk space usage.
72 - The new format (called RevlogNG) is now the default.
73 - Mercurial works perfectly with both the old and new repository
74 file formats. It can transfer changes transparently between
75 repositories of either format.
76 - To use the new repository format, simply use `hg clone --pull` to
77 clone an existing repository.
78 - Note: Versions 0.8.1 and earlier of Mercurial cannot read
79 RevlogNG repositories directly, but they can `clone`, `pull`
80 from, and `push` to servers that are serving RevlogNG
81 repositories.
82 - Memory usage has been improved by over 50% for many common operations.
83 - Substantial performance improvements on large repositories.
84 - New commands:
85 - 'archive' - generate a directory tree snapshot, tarball, or zip
86 file of a revision
87 - Deprecated commands:
88 - 'addremove' - replaced by 'add' and 'remove --after'
89 - 'forget' - replaced by 'revert'
90 - 'undo' - replaced by 'rollback'
91 - New extensions:
92 - Bugzilla integration hook
93 - Email notification hook
94 - Nested repositories are now supported. Mercurial will not recurse
95 into a subdirectory that contains a '.hg' directory. It is treated
96 as a separate repository.
97 - The standalone web server, 'hg serve', is now threaded, so it can
98 talk to multiple clients at a time.
99 - The web server can now display a "message of the day".
100 - Support added for hooks written in Python.
101 - Many improvements and clarifications to built-in help.
102
103
104 2006-04-07 v0.8.1
105
106 * Major changes from 0.8 to 0.8.1:
107
108 - new extensions:
109 mq (manage a queue of patches, like quilt only better)
110 email (send changes as series of email patches)
111 - new command: merge (replaces "update -m")
112 - improved commands: log (--limit option added), pull/push ("-r" works
113 on specific revisions), revert (rewritten, much better)
114 - comprehensive hook support
115 - output templating added, supporting e.g. GNU changelog style
116 - Windows, Mac OS X: prebuilt binary packages, better support
117 - many reliability, performance, and memory usage improvements
118
119
120 2006-01-29 v0.8
121
122 * Upgrade notes:
123
124 - diff and status command are now repo-wide by default
125 (use 'hg diff .' for the old behavior)
126 - GPG signing is now done with the gpg extension
127 - the --text option for commit, rawcommit, and tag has been removed
128 - the copy/rename --parents option has been removed
129
130 * Major changes from 0.7 to 0.8:
131
132 - faster status, diff, and commit
133 - reduced memory usage for push and pull
134 - improved extension API
135 - new bisect, gpg, hgk, and win32text extensions
136 - short URLs, binary file handling, and optional gitweb skin for hgweb
137 - numerous new command options including log --keyword and pull --rev
138 - improved hooks and file filtering
139
140
141 2005-09-21 v0.7 with modifications
142
143 * New INI files have been added to control Mercurial's behaviour:
144
145 System-wide - C:\Mercurial\Mercurial.ini
146 Per-user - C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Mercurial.ini
147
148 A default version of the system-wide INI file is installed with
149 Mercurial. No per-user INI file is installed, but it will be
150 honoured if you create one.
151
152 * Windows line endings are now handled automatically and correctly by
153 the update and commit commands. See the INI file for how to
154 customise this behaviour.
155
156 * NOTE: Much of the rest of the Mercurial code does not handle Windows
157 line endings properly. Accordingly, the output of the diff command,
158 for example, will appear huge until I fix this.
159
160 * Packaged text files now have correct Windows line endings.
161
162
163 2005-09-21 v0.7 with modifications
164
165 * This is the first standalone release of Mercurial for Windows.
166
167 * I believe it to be mostly functional, with one exception: there is
168 no support yet for DOS <-> Unix line ending conversion.
